It's okay to not be okay

Like a branch sprouting from a dying tree, saving it from the brink of disaster. So we too must learn to grow and evolve past our current state. ‘It is never too late to start anew” 

But when we spend enough time pretending to be someone we're not, eventually we’ll lose ourselves to the act. And become the lie we so carefully constructed for ourselves. Lost in a barrage of facades and personas. Slipping further and further away from the truth and who we truly are. 

I think that’s where the saying comes from. “In life, we constantly have to find and rediscover ourselves” 

This however isn't always easy. often, we're too arrogant and ignorant to realize we’ve strayed from the path we once set for ourselves, after all, IGNORANCE IS BLISS.  

Sometimes we get too absorbed with our problems that we turn a blind eye to everything that threatens to ruin or disrupt this carefully constructed life we put together. For fear of failure, judgment, loneliness, loss of money, power, or status.   

So, we feign ignorance and soon become that carefully constructed lie.                                         

Maybe growing into who you are meant to be and acceptance goes hand in hand. 

Acceptance... 

Self-love. Accepting yourself flaws and all.                                                                                              Realizing there is nothing left for you in the past. Whatever happened, happened and the part you played in it whether willingly or unwillingly it is done and in the past.
